Description

Single crystal suede smooth and round treatment process
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of solar cell preparation, in particular to a single crystal suede smooth and round treatment process.
Background
At present, the key point of large-scale development and utilization of solar photovoltaic power generation lies in improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells and reducing the production cost of the solar cells. The silicon-based Heterojunction (HIT) solar cell is a new third-generation high-efficiency solar cell technology, combines the advantages of the first-generation monocrystalline silicon and the second-generation silicon film, has a series of advantages of high conversion efficiency, low temperature coefficient and the like, has great development potential and wide application prospect, and is expected to lead the development direction of the whole silicon-based solar cell.
The preparation of the passivation layer is the most critical process step in the manufacturing process of the silicon-based heterojunction solar cell, and the high-quality passivation layer can effectively inhibit the compounding of current carriers on the silicon surface and prolong the minority carrier lifetime, so that the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell is improved. However, compared with the silicon nitride passivation layer with the thickness of about 80nm involved in the traditional crystalline silicon cell, the amorphous silicon passivation layer of the silicon-based heterojunction solar cell is extremely thin, and is only 5-10nm, so that the deposition of the amorphous silicon passivation layer has an extremely high requirement on the surface morphology of the silicon wafer.
In the prior art of manufacturing an HIT solar cell, in order to obtain a good antireflection effect on the surface of a silicon wafer, texturing processing on the surface of the silicon wafer is firstly performed through a cleaning texturing process, and a pyramid textured structure with a light absorption effect is etched on the surface of the silicon wafer. However, the peak of the structure is sharp, and the structure is easy to cause plasma discharge and other adverse factors in the amorphous silicon deposition process, so that the amorphous silicon film deposition is very uneven, the film quality is seriously influenced, and finally the battery conversion efficiency is reduced.
In the prior art, a monocrystalline silicon piece after being cleaned and textured is generally soaked in HNO 3 And in the mixed solution of HF, under the etching of certain temperature and time, the suede becomes smooth and round. However, the method can generate a large amount of waste liquid containing F and N, and the waste liquid can reach the discharge standard after being treated by a series of waste water and diluted by a large amount of water, thereby increasing the production cost of the battery piece virtually. To avoid the generation of N-containing waste liquid, ozone is used to replace HNO 3 Firstly, carrying out oxidation treatment on the surface of the silicon wafer, and then adopting an HF solution to etch the surface of the silicon wafer. However, the method still needs to treat the generated F-containing waste liquid and needs to be additionally provided with a high ozone machine, so that the equipment investment is increased.
